Small Price to Pay

Guy comes in looking for the newest Beckett (sports card price guide.) Can't figure out why he can't find one. So I inform him that Beckett has changed the format, and I guide him to the right spot. Inside baseball knowledge, so to speak. Something that would've probably taken him a long, long time to figure out on his own.

So I say to him, like I often do, "Hey, buy a box from us sometime."

"Oh, no. You are overpriced."

"Oh?"

"Yes, your Fleer basketball is four dollars more than Shopko." (39.99 vs. 36.00)

So there you go. A four dollar difference in price, and world of difference in perspective.
